The King's College Board of Directors approved its $55 million budget last week for the 2014 fiscal year, the school announced in a press release.

The fiscal year begins July 1.

The college had faced budget deficits of $3 million the past two years, which school officials blamed on the distribution of too much financial aid to students - essentially tuition discounts.

Spokesmen John McAndrew said the college was able to fill the budget gap by taking action such as laying off 11 full-time non-faculty workers and by cutting 10 percent from each department. There were no further layoffs, he said.
